Montreal, Quebec - Tagliani Autosport announces a major move to Chevrolet for the 2015 NASCAR Canadian Tire Series. This comes following the team's new partnership with Gravel Auto.

"With our new partnership with Gravel Auto, it became essential that we switch to Chevrolet. This association will enable Gravel Auto's clientele the opportunity to order the TAG Signature aesthetic package or performance modification for their new or current cars. We are also pleased to announce that Canadian alloy wheel manufacturer Fast Wheels, has joined the Gravel Auto TAG Signature option program. As I will be in Indianapolis this weekend for Indy 500 qualifying, Tagliani Autosport has selected two-time DD2 Class Karting World Champion Pier-Luc Ouellette from Terrebonne, Quebec to drive the Team #18 EpiPen/CGI Chevrolet Impala for the 2015 NASCAR Canadian Tire Series season opener at Canadian Tire Motorsport Park in Bowmanville, Ontario," Tagliani said.

Tagliani's NCATS entry partners with and is the brand ambassador for Pfizer Canada Inc., the Canadian distributor of The EpiPen® epinephrine auto-injector. Alex himself lives and races with a severe allergy to nuts, and shares the allergy awareness/Pfizer/EpiPen message across Canada through his racing program.

New partners, such as the CGI Group Inc. the fifth largest independent information technology and business process services firm in the world, have joined the Tagliani Autosport for its 2015 program. This will be CGI's first foray into the world of motorsport and Tagliani Autosport is hoping for a long and fruitful association with Canadian company CGI.

"I am very proud to introduce CGI into the world of motorsport and to be able to partner with them as they are a great fit with our racing program," continued Tagliani. "I'm hoping the successes of Tagliani Autosport during 2015 will help grow this association into a long term partnership. We are truly excited to represent CGI with our EpiPen Team, especially as we gain 68,000 new fans who are employees of the company."
